8 years ago I wrote a story that I felt really good about. It was so different from what I had written in the past, and there was something wonderful about it. There was also a lot that wasn't quite right.

Over the years I made little edits. This past year, I did a big edit. I was really proud of it. It hit the notes much better. It felt better.

Today I'm happy to share that the revised story got its acceptance letter!

More details when the contract is signed! Woohoo!

Almost all movies I've seen that have characters who don't speak, end the movie with the character speaking.

Almost all movies I've seen that have characters who don't cry, end the movie with the character crying.

I understand they're trying to make an arc, but sometimes people never talk and never cry. And, honestly, it's become so predictable that it's not even a good story arc anymore.
